Our friend Jorge comes from a coastal town in Colombia, the land of climbers. Yet his specialty is pure speed – on the velodrome and in road criteriums. He took part in national and regional competitions as a cadet and junior athlete, until he chose to devote himself to studying mechanical engineering, which took him away from the sport for a while.

He then returned to cycling, this time in a support role, with his hometown regional team as a mechanic and technical assistant. In this position, he contributed to the success of several athletes, some of whom went on to become Pan-American champions.

Jorge first made contact with CNCB in 2019, during a video call with general manager Nicolas Legault. He officially joined the team in 2024 as a bike mechanic, ready to also put his mechanical engineering expertise to good use for any related tasks.
